This woman was so incorrigible that she not only dragged her sons into it but also I doubt she felt any sadness or remorse when all 3 of them died. People like her usually end up caring only for themselves in the end.
She had 4 kids, one is still living fyi
@@KS-PNW
Yes, but he was only 8 years old when she was arrested. Griselda gave birth to 4 sons. He is the youngest son.
@@tanjahorvatserbiaoldslavsh4685 that doesn’t change that one is still living so why the “but” 💀
@@mementomorgan6721
He was in prison also. He is very rich. He has money but doesn't have a family.
Narcissistic
Her son Michael appeared on an episode of a program called "Evil Lives Here". The overall theme of the show is about the relatives of murderers discussing about their time with them. If they ever knew or suspected what their relative was up to. From Michael's appearance, it seemed like he knew that his overall life was different from other kids. But, he REALLY figured things out when his father was killed in front of him and was returned home to his mother.
Nah, he didn't really understand until after Griselda was arrested.
Absolutely love that show I just watched the newest episode about a guy named Robert Brashers
And her grandchildren were on a spin-off of Mob Wives
Yea his dad got shot down by a hit squad in Colombia the hit squad was sent by of all people his own wife..because he took off with Michael...she was an evil bitch no doubt..
Don't forget the Cartel Crew
Live by the sword, die by the sword. It's that simple.
Violence only breeds more violence..
Scary criminals only allow the scariest other criminals to operate. Having a strong kingpin keeps the streets safe unless you're involved in the crime life.
No strong criminals means little criminals everywhere doing petty thefts, property crimes, and laced drug dealing.
@@SirTorcharite Any examples? ... I hope you're not claiming cartel or large organized crime doesn't lace there drugs...... You think petty theft has anything to do with large organized crime?
I’m pretty sure she knew that. That’s why she outlived the majority of her enemies..
The “Macbeth” quote was a fitting end to such a tragic tale.
Yes. Loved that at the end there. One of my favorite quotes. Loved that play too. Other quotes that I loved were. "There is no art to find the mind's construction in the face" and "There are daggers in men's smiles". 👍♥️🙌👊
@@niamhryan9677 I played the roles of Duncan,Lenox,Hecate,Old Man,Scottish and English Doctor, and Old Seward for 20 performances with Hampshire Shakespeare in Massachusetts. Some parts were rotated between me and another actor but often times I had to walk off stage,put on a costume piece and re-enter the “fray” as someone else😂It was insanely fun and for a long time I could annoyingly recite the play in its entirety🤦🏼♀️
WTF???
And how many on here will no the Scottish play
Lady Macbeth… such a fitting quote for a fitting end.
1:15 - Chapter 1 - A bad seed
4:35 - Chapter 2 - Queen of queens
7:45 - Chapter 3 - The black widow
10:30 - Chapter 4 - Cocaine capital
13:50 - Chapter 5 - In the spider's web
16:40 - Chapter 6 - The longest goodbye
Can't wait to find those sick tracks, best DJ set ever.
@@kraanz 🤣🤣👍
That's where Tony Montana got his plates of crack from
If you were to continue to add these time stamps I will continue to like your comment. Thank you fine sire/madam.
Netflix brought me here . . .
If she could afford $150 in meat on the day that she died at the age of 69, I wouldn’t say she had NOTHING to show, but she definitely had a deserving end.. the cycle of violence is very sad. What a crazy story/bio though.. great job Simon and team!
She still had millions left at the time of her death
her took it then I wonder
She was flaunting at that point. What’s a 150 in meat in Columbia? Like two cows? Had she really just gone away, she might have gotten to die old. The enemies don’t just go away and you do have to answer for your actions. If those actions are you killed a bunch of ppl, someone very well might come for you 30 years later. Not everyone gets to retire like George Bush.
I wouldn't called it deserving. I call it ironic. Because it 2021 and people are so soft I must say this: I'm not saying you are wrong just saying how I view her ending, that's all.
Honestly that was the strangest thing that I got out of this video. What in the world was she doing with all that meat?
Thank you for doing her story. I have been reading watching stuff about her for years. Finally get to hear your version of her. Thank you. Love your channels
Good call bro always look forward to your video posts its nice that somebody out there is this interested in history keep up the great work man you are very appreciated 🧠💪💯
How difficult was it to keep Brain Blaze Simon contained while recording this?
Yeah, I wasn't paying attention, saw Simon and "Cocaine" and assumed it was a BB vid. Took way too many minutes to realize it wasn't a Danny or Callum script.
Yet another amazing video Simon keep up the good work sir.
I would like to see one of Pedro Alonso Lopez, The Monster of the Andes
Pedro Alonso, doesn't he play Berlin in La Casa De Papel? Lol
Can’t believe that man walked free
@@SpencerJ289 and has never been found since. There's no chance that he was reformed and stopped raping and murdering children, either.
I could have sworn they did a video on there today I found out channel before they starts biographics
@@Oleandra-13 he might be dead
Great video as always, love watching your videos. Very informative and great research put in 👏🏼
what a perfect episode of biographics.
Thank you for sharing!
Simon: "...a high quality tailored blazer."
OGBBs: *ecstatic pointing*
Simon been getting spicy w the new episode s I like the shift !!! 💯🤞🌍
I watched channel ID's show "Evil lives here" episode about Griselda. Griselda's youngest son talked about Griselda and his childhood. His childhood was weird and very mysterious. She was a very caring mother to him. He was only 8 years old when his mother Griselda was arrested. She was the Number #1 mobster in Columbia history.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING ON THIS ONE!!! THANK YOU!!!
😍😍😍
@@beezy_b 🥰😘
@@parisharris3442 you gonna snort some powder to this one huh
@@GeneralGlockasiah good lord what is wrong with you 🤣
“One thousand, five hundred kilos of Charlie Sheen”

You mean that horny magician dude from Castlevania?
WUOLD YOU LIKESOME?a.??

The absolute pinnacle of "Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss"

1500kg of Charlie Sheen lmao Simon you legend
Ok, so I did hear “Charlie Sheen”!
ABOUT TIME !!! 🥶🤘🏼☃️Now where’s John Turnow’s Bio Simon!!!! All the best. 😎🤙🏻
I need a ringtone of Simon saying "punk ass nobody" over and over
Simon with the fire on this one
She wasn’t nothing to play with
Exactly.
These new beats on the end of the video :) I like it fact boi
Great story well told.
I'm here for this!!! Thank you for ALL that you do Simon... You should look into Alpo, Rich Porter, and AZ...
Only true New Yorkers and Washingtonians can tell that story, Wayne Perry is my cousin and the best documentary on the whole story is in the streets not on CZcams from us not CZcamsrs.
The way her life came to an end…
Nothing beside remains ‘round the decay of that colossal wreck,
Boundless and bare, the lone and level sands stretch far away
Excellent use of Shelley.
Man that intro take was perfect. I can only imagine how many shots it took
It was aiight
1,500 of Charlie sheen 😂
Good video 👍
What kind of equipment do you use for your videos? What kind of video editing software do you use? I'd like to know.
I love this Channel 💯,simon I hope you doing well, God bless you.
Can you talk about all the heads of the Medellin and Cali cartels?
Also can you make a video about Jon Roberts the cocaine smuggler Miami?
Taking an Uber to Burger King suddenly takes on a totally different meaning.
This was great to watch.
I remember the shooting in Dadeland mall, I lived literally across the street from it lol, it was as wild as you can imagine and more during those days in Miami, it was too easy to buy a cheap Cessna and do coke runs back then

@@bodyloverz30 Well they pretty much mean the same thing.
Love you stuff mate, would love to see your take on Gamal Abdel Nasser.
Dude said "punk a$$" with and accent. Subscribing immediately!!!
:36 he got quiet about what he said about Pablo like Pablo was close lol
You reminded me of Mary poppings, cheers mate
Hey Simon. What about covering Grace Hopper. She's a BADASS
Grandma saw the hit and was like "I accept this"
Thank you
My ex wife is from colombia im scared now.
More likely to murder you for spelling Colombia wrong.
"...signifying nothing."
oooh, someone reads Shakespeare..

“1,500 kg of Charlie Sheen.”
Savage 😂
Simon’s personal hero. But thanks for making Biographics a podcast as well!! I’d only noticed a few weeks ago and have been listening since then.
If you want more, Cocain Cowboys 1 & 2 cover all of this with first-hand accounts of people who are left. Incredible story, so scary and interesting.
Where can I find them please?
@@timsmith1323 They're both on CZcams.
@@MichaelJP ok thanks but when I search for cocaine cowboys I get a load of half arsed documentaries about them but not actually the cocaine cowboys ones
@@timsmith1323 Susan's bots keep deleting my replies, look for the doco adding reloaded 2014 to the title for the first and 2 Hustlin with the Godmother for the second. Hopefully 3rd time's a charm.
Yes cocaine cowboys 1 and 2 everyone should watch ....way more detailed explicit and shows and tells alot more about griselda blanco. Two of my favorite documentaries. WORTH WATCHING
At the end where she finally got what she deserved, her ugly mug comes up again. And for a split second there, I thought I heard the "Wasted" sound from GTA.
Hi can you make a video on Desmond T Doss the first conscientious objector to win the medal of honour and on which the movie Hacksaw Ridge by Mel Gibson is based on. Thank you.
I kept reading 'Coraline godmother' ...time to update my glasses. Still awesome video :D even if it's light on buttons and ghost children
I read cocaine grandmother, haha.
We are what we read..
Cocaine Cowboys taught me enough about her to instantly click and like this video! Btw we could use Biographics vids on Micky Munday, Jon Roberts, Rivi Ayala...
Yeah shame that Munday is back in the clink
Very interesting!
Who the hell thumbs down this video Simon Whistler is one of the best story tellers iv ever heard tell story’s
She was one of the most dangerous kingpins
excellently written and performed
Really... Uber was handling distribution?
That one man was like “tell Griselda, the north remembers”.
How did you find that document? Where is it kept?
They say that even in her early days in NYC, she was equally as ruthless... Rumor has it that a few long forgotten people that might've done business with her then are still unaccounted for to this day...
Can you do a Biographic on Sophie Scholl and The White Rose resistance which were a collective of German University students please.
Who openly condemned Freisler in court at their trial The Allies will string you up!
Hell yes. I didn’t even watch yet, already a like
Straight up
Interesting. Im sharing !
I would love to see a biography about Mozart or Beethoven
Daily reminder to not send you relatives to south Florida for rehab.
..And all the while I was asking VisualPolitik EN where the heck did Simon disappear?
Shoutout everybody here within a minute. Where my minute men at?
I'm a minute woman if that counts. I turned on the video 58 seconds after it posted and there were 12 views, I was the 19th like and 2 comments. How were there 12 views and 18 likes lol!
I dunno if I'd be running around, bragging about being a "minute man" lol. Although, I believe the current terminology is a "two pump chump". Either way, I would keep that private if I we're you. Iol.
@@Cman04092 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Am I an one-hour man then? 😏
At work..
Griselda Blanco was a hideous coldblooded murderer and sadist. Blanco’s horrific crime wave absolutely terrorized the innocent people of South Florida! Fortunately the street justice that Blanco dished out to many dozens of others ultimately came back to her.
@BioGraphics can you please do a vid on Kate Leigh and Tilly Devine.
2 women that ran the Sydney under world in the early 1900.
I absolutely want to see a Casual Criminalist on this story… 😂
Oh, cocaine godmother. I thought the thumbail suggets that she's a polio survivor
Could you make a Biographics episode on the Dr. Favaloro please?
The first cocaine cowboys documentary goes through all this it's worth a viewing
She's also the focus of #2 and is mentioned quite a bit in 3
make a video of Samuel Colt
Please do one about William of Orange

Tell me this is not the real live Big Mom!! She even gave his son a goofy and fearful name that is Michael Corleone😄
I “do not recommend” every time you show up on my feed, yet you still keep appearing. Remarkable
Lol think he cares or will even see? 😅😅
@@Don_Dewitt no I’m just a bad person and wanted to announce it
Rest In Peace to those that passed away.
I wonder if she's the inspiration for Queen of the South.
Yes she is
The new Netflix miniseries brought me here. Sofia Vergara does an incredible interpretation of Blanco! I hope there's more seasons coming.....
How? It was a pretty conclusive ending
Maybe do one on Disney’s Nine Old Men or other animation pioneers.
You gotta do one on Veronica Gurin
Her son, Michael blanco and is wife are on the show Cartel Crew on vh1.
It's not very good. They're cocky still
Michael Corleone Blanco
@@Memelord4dayz One day they'll face the same fate
int he first 10 seconds you instantly rememinded me of Madam Mendelbaum
William Faulkner would be proud of you, Simon.
Goku?
I wonder how she'd feel about her youngest son being on a VH1 reality show now..?
Probably glad they didn’t have her childhood.
Indeed
She is dead. She was liquidated.
Probably pretty good that he's still alive.
I don't know about Michael and his show but if I was Maria or her whole family depending on how she felt about either I would be afraid. She woulda waited for Mike to have his daughter and its would be on.
Does anyone know anymore videos better detailing her sons? I looked and can’t find any 🤔
Does anyone know the name of the other channel he does? I can’t for the life of me remember it
I only was scared of 1 man……….and it was a woman.
